Handling exception in type constructor

[Martijn]

Hi,

When I run the undermentioned code, I get the
message: 'The type initializer
for "ConsoleApplication1.Class2" threw an exception.'.
Why not 'Attempted to divide by zero.'? I want to handle
the exception in the Main method. Thanks in advance.

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
public class Class1
{
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
Class2 c = new Class2();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine
(ex.Message);
Console.Read();
}
}
}

public class Class2
{
static Class2()
{
int a = 2, b = 0;
int c = a / b; //Error.
}

public Class2()
{
//
}
}
}
